I had pre booked tickets from Skipton but the Leeds train was delayed, another earlier Leeds train arrived but I was told I couldn't get on it as my tickets were for the delayed train. If they were booked seats you could understand but they a...

That sounds like fun Sue! When my brother and sister in law lived in York I bought them this book about the Snickleways of York. I don't know if they ever used it, but I would love to! https://www.waterstones.com/book/a-walk-around-the-snickelways-of-york/mark-w-jones/mark-w-jones/9781871125771 Wel...

I was glad to be able to go Gloria, I met Ken on a few occasions and I was a familiar face to Jean. I would think that most of those attending were ex RR colleagues.

It's because the National Archives chose Findmypast to digitise and publish it. 3 years work!

I had chicken pox when I was in my teens, it was very unpleasant. I always associate it with the Beatles Help! LP and a sunny week in the caravan on the East Coast recovering.

Re: Today I shall be Mainly...

After lunch I will be heading out onto Skipton Old Road, wearing a lot of warm clothing topped by a fluorescent vest, to pick up bags full of litter from the verges. It is Lothersdale's litter picking day but I like to join in as part of the road is within that parish.

Pendle Forest Ian. I'm told it has Arquiva A and B transponders for Smart meter data using LoRa radio. The tricky bit is coupling it with the meter I believe.

I was in attendance to provide transport not advice! Unfortunately the power steering has just failed on his car and its in the garage. It seems the damage is in his outer ear not the inner. He is too big in every way Stanley!
